My Life in Full

Women don't belong on pedestals. They don't belong on the sidelines or behind the accomplishments of others. They belong in the ring - fighting' Indra NooyiIndra Nooyi is a business tycoon like no other. At a time when women, especially women of colour, had limited access to the c-suite, Nooyi showed the world that women have a place at the top. Now, Nooyi wants to help more women, particulalrly working mothers, secure leadership positions. In this profound, deeply personal memoir, you'll read about Nooyi's journey from Madras, India, to Yale University, to her first job at Booz Allen Hamilton, and finally, to the c-suite of PepsiCo. Alongside these stories of triumph, Nooyi also recounts the difficult choices and sacrifices that her family had to make so Nooyi could be both a CEO and a mother. In BluePrint, Nooyi argues that modern workplaces are still designed for men and single-earner households, and presents a six-point plan for creating a modern, inclusive workplace that prioritises family and empowers women. From policy changes including paid family leave, corporate childcare systems and fair pay for caregivers, to diversity and inclusion efforts that address bias in the workplace with accountability measures, Nooyi's plan for change will propel women into the positions that they deserve and work hard for. Women shouldn't have to choose between achieving success at work and having a family. BluePrint is a rallying cry for women at every stage of their careers, and a manifesto for change for every corporate executive and policy leader.
